Now that Summer has ended and Autumn has
officially begun - at least according to the
calendar - Coral Trace is heading into a very
active Fall season with many changes planned or
already underway!

A new property manager,
James McKendry, LCAM
(see below), was appointed at the last board
meeting. James was instrumental in stepping in
on an interim basis to navigate the many
challenges of keeping Coral Trace going after
the unexpected health concerns of our regular
manager, Bob Loperfido. Thankfully, Bob is
progressing well, but will not be returning due
to the extended nature of his situation.
However, despite this, he has continued his
caring commitment to our community throughout
his ordeal and has been regularly communicating
with the board and James to guide us through
this transition period.

Now here are the latest highlights from the past
few weeks and for the months ahead:

¨Parking
and Pets
– There are still some owners or guests parking
on the grass and/or in the streets. Please avoid
a violation notice and ask your guests to park
either in your driveway or in the guest lot.
Your dogs must be on a leash at ALL times and
cleaned up afterwards.
This includes the lake area
where a number of dogs are being allowed to run
loose. Please leash your dog
any time
it is outside the house and clean up after any
business. Thank you in advance for your
cooperation!

¨Roof/Driveway/Walkway
Pressure Cleaning
AND
Fence Pressure Cleaning/Repair/Painting
The annual homeowner fence, roof, driveway and
walkway pressure cleaning per HOA rules and
regulations is scheduled to begin October 1 with
a completion date requirement of October 31. An
official letter is on its way, but you should
make plans now to get your cleaning scheduled.
*As a helpful tip, some owners meet with their
unit neighbors and coordinate for the company to
clean all the unit roofs at the same time so
that everyone’s roof in the unit looks nice and
clean at the same time. A-Plus Pressure Cleaning
and Painting has performed this service for our
association’s common areas as well as for
individual homeowners with positive results for
a number of years, however you are free to
select the vendor of your choice as long as they
complete it by
October 31.*Any
fences needing repair and/or painting must also
be addressed at this time per our governing
documents.

¨Common
Areas/Sidewalk Pressure Cleaning/Mulch
– In November new mulch will be installed
throughout and the common areas including the
community sidewalks, island curbs, clubhouse and
pool area
will be cleaned by the association
on 11/4 and 11/15 respectively.

¨Lighting
Project
– The equipment for the community entrance and
pool lighting installation has been ordered by
the vendor and will be scheduled for
installation as soon as it arrives.

¨Pool
and Spa Signs
– As the final phase of our pool/spa renovation,
new signs have been ordered that will now
reflect the “No Smoking” policy adopted this
year among other updates.

¨Clubhouse
and Fitness Center
– The clubhouse has been scheduled for a deep
clean this month and repairs to fitness center
equipment were performed. Clubhouse rentals will
remain at $150, however the required deposit was
approved for an increase to $300 at the board
meeting. *Deposits are returned once the
facility has been cleaned and returned to
regular order.

¨Palm
Seed Pods
– will be trimmed again during the first week of
October.

¨2019
Budget
– The proposed budget will be presented to the
board at the October 15 meeting.

¨Annual
Homeowners’ Meeting
– is scheduled for Saturday, November 17 at 1:00
p.m. in the clubhouse.

It’s important to recognize that all of these
projects are coordinated by volunteer board
members and fellow homeowners who care about our
community – that’s how homeowner associations
work - so we always appreciate the positive
feedback received by so many of you as we work
to make Coral Trace a wonderful place to live.
Together with everyone’s support, we can create
a safe, attractive and harmonious community
based on caring, respect and civility for all!

Please mark your calendar to attend the next
monthly
board meeting
on October 15 at 7:00 pm and the
Annual Homeowners’ Meeting
scheduled for Saturday, November 17 at 1:00 p.m.
in the clubhouse.

Hope to see YOU there!

Important Community Rules

1. Pets - both dogs and cats - must be
leashed outside, and cleaned up after.

2. Garbage and Trash pickup is on Tuesdays and
Fridays.

The crew will not pick up bags on curb - garbage must be in pails. Also note that
plastic containers/bottles must be in correct
bin, and paper/cardboard placed in correct bin -
crew will not separate these items & they will
be left on curb. If your pails/bins are
damaged, call (561-202-2463) for delivery of new
ones.

The vegetation (tree branches etc.) is
only picked up on Tuesdays. Recycles are on
Friday.

3. Hurricane Shutters: If you have someone
watching your house and they put your shutters
up, please have them taken down according to our
Rules and Regulations.

4. Architectural and
Landscaping Changes (implemented by residents or
their contractors)

Please remember that any
landscaping or other physical updates and
changes require you to:

1. Complete the Architectural
Alterations application
using the following link:

Our (Citizens on Patrol) COPs are again
providing security patrols in our Delray Beach patrol cars, and there are openings for those
who want to help the community. We need more
community involvement… interested residents are
invited to join. We have made a meaningful
impact in lowering the crime rate in our
community with this effort, and will do better
with even more coverage.

There are a few things that our residents can do
to help:

1. KEEP YOUR OUTSIDE LIGHTS ON AT NIGHT.
That will help our COPs who patrol after dark
see your home’s front and side better, and deter
criminals.

2. LOCK YOUR CARS and KEEP GARAGE DOORS
CLOSED and LOCKED. This way your belongings will
not walk away.

3. DO NOT PARK ON THE STREETS. Many residents
park on the streets, especially at night which
is against our community's rules. Doing this
impedes the emergency vehicles that respond to
calls for help. Every unit has room for 3 cars —
a garage and a 2 car driveway. Use these spaces,
not the streets. Request that your service
personnel (maid, pest control, etc.) use your
driveway or guest spots.

4. DO NOT use GUEST parking spaces
yourself.

5. OBEY the STOP SIGNS! There are near misses
occurring frequently because of vehicles not
stopping.

6. Do not obstruct the sidewalks with anything,
especially your vehicles. The police will ticket
cars that block the sidewalk.

7. Be advised that the Delray Beach Police
Department are issuing tickets for these traffic
infractions.
